Elias Naur 8611894b4b app,app/internal/wm: introduce app.Window.Run and use it internally
app.Window implements a method for safely running functions against the
underlying native window through the driverFuncs channel. However, the
functions still run in a different goroutine than the one driving the
native event loop, which forces the implementations in package wm to do
complicated synchronization.

A previous change added a mechanism to run functions in the native event
loop thread. The macOS port needed this functionality, but with some
care it can be generalized. That's what this change does through the
new Run method.

The advantage is that the thread switch dance is now confined to
app.Window, with the help of a generic wm.Driver.Wakeup method. All
other Driver methods can then assume they run on their event loop
threads.

Run is exported because it is also needed for programs that use
Windows configured with CustomRenderer to control their own rendering.
